Evolve out of the Frame: Interactive and Immersive Displays at all Scales
Los Angeles, California, USA, Saturday/Sunday August 9th/10th, 2008
co-located with SIGGRAPH 2008
===================================================================

Call for Papers, Short Papers, and Demonstrations
-------------------------------------------------
Aims and Scope
The recent flurry of display technology development has produced
families of technologies that make fixed and projected pixels cheaper,
faster, more flexible, and of higher quality. These advances enable
'smart pixels' and enable a number of burgeoning applications ranging
from displays being used for better and more flexible images, to user
interaction, scene sensing, and environment enhancement.
This event combines the successful series of Emerging Display Technologies workshops (www.emergingdisplays.org
Some example topics of interest include:
* multiview, multifocal, or high dynamic range displays;
* omnistereo projection systems;
* ad hoc or "poor man's" projection systems;
* ultra wide field of view HMD optics;
* ultra fast displays;
* head-worn or hand-held (mobile) paradigms;
* hybrid display systems and applications;
* displays with integrated interaction components;
* adaptive projector display systems;
* extended color gamut or color matching displays;
* projector-based user/device tracking or interaction;
* embedded pixels for Spatially-Augmented Reality; and
* rendering techniques associated with the above.
This two-day workshop should provide an opportunity to expand attendee
thinking about ways to use contemporary display devices in new systems
and applications.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Friday, May 16th, 2008
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:
Technical Presentations
=======================
We encourage the submission of short or long papers for corresponding
technical presentations. The papers should describe recently completed work, work in progress, or publicly presentable ideas for unimplemented and/or unusual systems or applications. Accepted submissions will be published on a conference CD and will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.
Submissions can be a two-page (short presentation) or four-page (long
presentation) and need to be prepared electronically (PDF) in camera-ready form (i.e. with full author names and affiliations, no page numbers, etc.) following the SIGGRAPH Publication Guidelines for Conferences sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH.
Submission deadline is May 16th, 2008. Please submit your paper by email to submit@edt-ipt2008.org
To allow inclusion in the ACM Digital Library we will need a signed copy of the ACM Copyright form faxed to +1-337-735-1346 and in the mail to

by the submission deadline.
Please include pictures and/or video with your submission if possible. Videos should be in a common format, e.g., MPEG-1, MPEG-4, XviD, or DivX. Size permitting we will include the videos on the conference CD, please make sure to indicate in the submission email whether that is acceptable for your materials.
Submissions from commercial vendors are very welcome, as long as they are focused on technological aspects of the presented displays and avoid being a sales pitch.
We will ask authors to commit to either personally attend the workshop to present the work, or to arrange for a suitable replacement presenter.
ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION May 30th, 2008
Demonstrations
==============
There will not be a separate demonstrations track at EDT-IPT, but we encourage submitting demonstrations of new display technologies, to the New Technology Demos track at SIGGRAPH. This will give your demonstration a much higher visibility than the pure EDT workshop.
Please submit them as a Demo or Installation Format in the Juried Work area.
We are working on arranging an EDT-IPT preview showing of display-related demos on the evening of the 9th.
